I was wondering what traffic looks like on C-470 headed West in the mornings and headed east in the evening? (morning would be around 7:15-7:30 and evening would be between 5-5:30) Thank you!

If you are going west in the morning you should be ok. Same goes for going East in the evening until you hit I25.

the traffic is much more heavy in the opposite direction at both morning and evening rush. You should be fine.

That commute might be a relatively painless commute in the morning. The distance between 1-25 and Wadsworth is 12 miles. Most of the traffic in that section is going east in the morning. You should average 60-70 mph the whole way making your morning commute between 12 and 20 minutes.

The afternoon commute for whatever reason is worse. Most of the traffic will still be going the opposite direction, but it will be slower--more like 18 - 25 minutes.

Snow will increase your times by double or triple.
